    I’m not from the US but everytime I read Florida and DeSantis I am ready for the content and I know it is going to be interesting.

    I mean, Florida has people who race away from cops and hide cocaine up the nose. It’s a wild state. People from my country really go on vacation to florida to experience this. Walmart is a highlight.

      To be fair, a lot of the other states are just as bad, if not worse. Florida just has some laws that make criminal activity open record so that stuff goes straight to the news.

        Yeah, there are booklets you can buy every week/month (I forget which it’s been awhile) that is nothing but the latest arrest photos and crime.

        I don’t know of any other state that does that. That’s the reason why “Florida man” exists as a meme. But all those crimes happen everywhere else too. In other states and other countries.
